What a joke is Direct Broking. All day they have failed to put up ASX announcements on the Quote and News screens. This morning well after the ASX open, I sent an email to them about some missing announcements and was told that that they had an outage with the ASX feed and had fixed it before the market opened. Lies and more lies. The screen shot that I sent to them proved it. I am still finding ASX shares that I track with news missing, even at this hour of the day.

This is not the first time that Direct Broking has stuffed up with various kinds of problems with the ASX feed. In fact it is far too frequent and has been pretty bad since they took over from ANZ Securities.

Then they say that Issuer Sponsored transactions will not be supported going forward. Once they do that I will be forced to quit them, and the way it is going - good riddance. However, I would prefer to stay if they can also improve their reliability.
